Abiding Above - March 28, 2014

My friend, you are in Christ and you have been declared righteous…and that not of yourselves it is a gift from God. It is a gift, what God has done with you.

Look at what it says in James 4:14 – “…For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.”

We are here on this earth for a short time compared to eternity. We cannot afford to get stuck in the past nor be fearful of the future. We cannot rest on our mistakes and we cannot rest on our successes either; we have to move on. We must be careful that past mistakes do not hold us back, and we must be careful that our successes do not distract us from the present. You see, we are here for a moment and then we’re gone. Move on aheadand ask God what He would have you do with this gift of time and what lies ahead in 2014.
